Shades with an Edge

Our Designs fuse dark beauty and industrial attitude, offering eyewear that doesn't just block the sun - it commands attention

Each pair is crafted for those who live by their own light (or lack thereof).  Featuring metal piercing accents on the arms and lenses, our frames bring the look of body art into fashion eyewear
